My name is Zenyk and I am here to learn more about Islam and download some great music (nasheeds). I also would like to get to know people from all over the world and just learn as much as possible who they are and what kind of walks of life they come from. I am from Ukraine and moved to Canada at the age of 14. Here in Canada I quickly learned how diverse this country is! I was born in a Christian family and never learned anything about any other religion (including Islam) other than what I saw on the TV and heard from my parents. In grade 11 we had a class called World Religions. In the course of all semester we had trips to Mosque, Synagogue, Buddhist temple. I found Mosque to be very comfortable and peaceful. Imam of the mosque gave us a lecture about Islam. Later after graduating from highschool I worked downtown. I met a man who converted from Christianity to Islam. We talked about Islam every time we met and when I went to college I met some more people who were Muslims and I talked even more about Islam. As the time passed I learned more and more and what I learned made sense to me. I am still learning about Islam and so far it has changed me a lot (in a better way). I would also like to learn Arabic. I have not started yet but to me the writing looks extremely complicated as every single letter is different from alphabets I know. Anyways I could go on and on and on with my life but afraid my fingers would start to hurt ;-) so proposal is we get to know each other as we socialize. If you need any help in anything be my guest. I will try to help you to the best of my ability. Thanks for reading!
